Bibliotheca Alexandrina concludes ‘Tamooha’ entrepreneurship camp

The Bibliotheca Alexandrina, through its Women's Studies and Social Transformation Program, has concluded the ‘Tamooha’ entrepreneurship camp. Organized in partnership with the German Hanns Seidel Foundation, the initiative aimed to support startups and enhance the capabilities of entrepreneurs.

The program included 14 startups operating at various stages, many of which have been active in the Egyptian market for one to two years. The training was divided into two main phases: the first focused on financial aspects, project management, and entrepreneurship principles, while the second targeted company development to assist with expansion and growth.

In addition to the group training, the program provided individual mentoring sessions for each project with specialists in marketing and finance. Thomas Schama, the resident representative of the Hanns Seidel Foundation in Egypt, emphasized the foundation's commitment to supporting the private sector as a driver of economic development, noting that such efforts aim to improve financial sustainability for startups in Egypt and Germany.
